Tortoises just need a ton of variety each week and all have their favorites. Add all the greens and weeds you can find but to start add more of his favored foods all chopped up and add new foods in lesser amounts. Over time add more and more until he’s eating a variety of stuff. Variety really is the key here.

Torts will also love something and then get sick of it and refuse it for awhile so don’t be alarmed. All is normal.
